[Stanford-wbc-users] First steps on the (real) PR2

[Roland P. <pof...@gm...>]

Hi all,

Friday I finally got the Whle-Body Controller to run on Willow
Garage's PR2.  It was just a simple dual arm posture behavior... but
quite a step forward because of all the real-time and integration
issues encountered on the way.  The relevant ROS packages live in the
sandbox at
https://code.ros.org/gf/project/wg-ros-pkg/scmsvn/?action=browse&path=%2Ftrunk%2Fsandbox%2Fstanford_wbc%2F
https://code.ros.org/gf/project/wg-ros-pkg/scmsvn/?action=browse&path=%2Ftrunk%2Fsandbox%2Fpr2_stanford_wbc%2F

Related to this first demo are some changes in the WBC code base, most
notably the new wbc/ros subdirectory and some improvements to the
"setgains" user command.

Cheers,
Roland
